I’ll make a bet and say I’m the first person in 2025 to use a Nec CD-ROM ROM as a audio CD player. (Which is a nice feature of the unit)

Since a long time I’ve believed that you never really program in the programming language that you’re typing. You program in your own higher level language that resides in your head and you transpile into the concrete language you’re forced to use

I don’t quite entirely grasp why some colleagues feel the need to avertise how happy they are that they used this or that LLM lately. I’ve never seen quite that phenomenon before

Do you know of any reliable technique to bust the training out of a branch predictor on current intel and amd CPUs?

I've been working on a Direct3d 11 renderer for some time now for our DAW, and made a tool to profile rendering. Right now it's rudimentary and re-renders the same "heavy" frame over and over.

I'd like to add some kind of "branch predictor busting" code in between the renders, because I'm suspecting I'm could bias the performance measurements by training the branch predictor.

An interaction I have every now and then goes like this. I meet a person. They ask that question of what I do for a living. They look puzzled. Minutes later they go back to me and say something like "I don't understand, why do we need / use computers to make music?"
